Here is some friendly advice.



4: Being able to build a good relationship with your classmates (aka getting along) will go MUCH further than being the person that has memorized the most of a Goljan tape.

YOu mean i have to actually communicate with those little nimwitted...peons??

As someone who is studying for Step 1 and did biochem today, this thread makes me die a little bit inside.

Look, as someone who has taken biochemistry in college, taken medical biochemistry in medical school, and who is currently studying for his boards... I plead with all of you pre-meds: DO. NOT. WORRY. ABOUT. BIOCHEMISTRY.

It's one of the lowest yield subjects in your medical career. Sure, the integrations are interesting from a biological standpoint, but 95% of it all doesn't mean s**t in the grand scheme of your career. Do what everyone else does: cram it when it comes around, regurge it when you need to, then subsequently forget it forever. It will do you no good to spend any of your precious free time studying. I say this as someone who no longer has free time, and fondly remembers the days when I did.

And to the pre-med who is memorizing Goljan and spouting off in this thread... Dude, give it a rest. I am telling you this for your own survival: when it comes to medical school, it doesn't matter whether what you say is "right" or not. It's all about how you say it. The first time you show up a resident by spewing the "right" answer when it isn't your place, you are going to get reamed. You always defer to the hierarchy, and the hierarchy states that as someone who is not yet in medical school, you have no authority to speak on what one needs to know FOR medical school, because you lack that experience. You do not see me over in the residents forum posting about what you need to know as an intern because I looked at Surgical Recall.
